Freejump Air Pure Shock Absorbing Riding Stirrups
Description
Freejump Air Pure Stirrups - Forged Aluminium with Air-Cushioned Shock Absorption
The Freejump Air Pure is a high-performance riding stirrup made from forged aluminium alloy with a fibreglass design, fitted with Freejump Shock Absorption technology that creates an air cushion under foot. It is best for riders who want a traditional stirrup shape with modern impact absorption, and it is particularly popular with dressage and hunter riders while remaining suitable across all disciplines.
Compared with a plain metal iron, the Air Pure adds an elastomer and mechanical absorption system, a wide grippy floor with metal studs and a wide straight eye that accepts wider stirrup leathers - all aimed at a steadier lower leg and a more comfortable ride.

FAQ
What are Freejump Air Pure stirrups made from?
They are crafted from forged aluminium alloy with a fibreglass design that maximises durability and resistance to daily wear.
How does the shock absorption work?
Freejump Shock Absorption technology combines an elastomer with a mechanical system to create an effective air cushion, reducing impact under foot on landing and through transitions.
Which disciplines are they best for?
The traditional shape suits multiple disciplines, with particular appeal for dressage and hunter riders, and it works well for everyday schooling and hacking too.
Will they fit my stirrup leathers?
The wide straight eye is designed to work with wider stirrup leathers, so measure your leather width before ordering to confirm compatibility.
What size stirrup floor should I choose?
As a general guide, allow roughly 1cm of clearance either side of your riding boot so your foot can move and release freely; measure the widest part of your boot sole to check.
How do I care for them?
Wipe clean after riding, dry before storage and check the metal studs, floor and eye regularly. Replace the stirrups if any part becomes damaged or heavily worn.
